Oh, there was a whole lot of teh dumb in the 200$ VIP section :P


We need stories. ;)

I saw when like 50 people or so must have broke in through the fence at the back and came running down the wet hill. There was lots of slipping and rolling as they were trying to get far enough into the crowd that security couldn't catch them.

In the VIP section there was a blind guy, wasted out of his head. He had a "helper" getting him around. Inside the tent there was a certain pole holding up the tent that when the blind guy ran into it twice (snails pace), each time he'd get totally flustered and yak at his "handler" for about 5 minutes about whatever while 20 people were kinda just hanging around going WTF dude!

At the of the show he was inside the tent, alone, swinging his broken cane around like a flail.

Also some drunk chick fell on me and punched me in the gut. That was also the chick doing body shots with beer poured down her boobies.

What impresses e the most was the cheap price of beer, the quality of the food, the fact that Metallica looked genuinely happy to be in Halifax, and the rain stopped just before Metallica came in (and awesome sunset).

The concert rocked. Loved it from start till finish. There was a lot of the weed being burned up as well. but what would you expect. It was Metallica playing in Metallifax. I was standing on the other side of the double barrier between the beer gardens. And the drunk dudes that tried to jump across were quickly scruffed up by the security guards. It was funny shit. Best concert I have seen. ALthough the only concert before and my first one was Def Leappord in 96 lol

Yeah I was just on the VIP side of that double barrier...I'm glad the "security" was there cuz I'm sure there woulda been a few people (me included...yay mob mentality!) on this side that would have made sure the peons in the 100$ paid dearly for their transgression.
